Belgian Drupal Community

After a long time finally a Drupal meetup in person!
The date and occasion were not chosen by chance as the new version of Drupal 10, will be released on December 14th.
This is, of course, a great opportunity for all Drupal enthusiasts to gather in one place and check together the innovations brought by the latest version of Drupal.

Program:
18:00: Gathering of participants and introduction

18:15 - 20:00 Lectures:
Aleš Rebec: What's new in Drupal 10 and why it makes sense to use Drupal in 2023
Lio Novelli: Helpful tools for writing better code

WHAT IS GOING ON?
Drupalcamp is on its way! This time we'll do an unique Drupalcamp. Hopefully this is the last year of COVID-19 uncertainty and due to this we are working together with the international Drupal Community to let DrupalCon, Drupalcamp Belgium, Drupaljam Netherlands, DrupalCamp Kiev Ukraine, DrupalCamp Germany happen at the same time!

WHEN? HOW MANY PEOPLE?
Drupalcamp is from the 6th till the 7th of October 2021. We will cap the registration at 75 people maximum due to health & safety regulations. We will adapt as needed.

WHAT WILL HAPPEN?

Drupal Dev Days 2020 will be held in Ghent, Belgium from the 6th to 10th of April 2020.

DrupalCamp Belgium is a free annual gathering of people loving, learning and discussing the open-source content management system, Drupal.

Hi,

I'm currently busy writing a new theme for Drupal 7.
It's not the first one I do, my first try was with Saeven for Aegir 2 years ago but it was mainly for my personnal/work purpose.

This message is to get a feedback from the community on how to implement best practices for creating a base theme.

In this project, I tried to decouple it as much as I could and what, actually, makes a theme.
The current issue with Drupal is that, currently, many theme definitions are defined either in theme_function() or via templates.

Drupal Night is an event by and for people with a passion for Drupal, held on Tuesday 31 January 2017 at "De Kruitfabriek" in Vilvoorde. Come and join us! You'll learn from experienced developers during interesting sessions, get to know fellow Drupalists and you will have a great evening at an awesome location.

On this first edition, we also have a special guest and keynote Dries Buytaert, the original founder of Drupal.

If you would like to participate for the event, don't hesitate to register. The event is free of charge, fun included!

Hey Drupalistas!
We are just a few blinks away from the DrupalCamp Munich 2016 (31.11.-02.12.2016 CodeSprints @ Burda Media // 03.12.-04.12.2016 DrupalCamp @LMU Munich). As you know, this is our 2nd Camp after the great (and 1st) DrupalDevDays in 2010, and we think we will be great hosts again.

So, it's your part to submit your session prosposals until 14th of november and to be part of the special spirit of a camp with friends, Drupal, PHP, Symfony, beer, a lot of socializing, food, another beer, coffee, code sprints, very special welcome-bags, ...
We are thankful of our sponsors so we have a special prizing for students and WWCode. Please contact us for further information.
We look forward to seeing you at DrupalCamp Munich 2016 and to drinking a mug or two of "Gluhwein" or bavarian beer together.

Na wat wederom een geweldige DrupalJam zal worden, nodigen wij alle aanwezigen uit om gezamenlijk een hapje te eten en drinken. Na de borrel kunnen we de rest van de avond terecht bij Vineyard (parkeerplaatsen beschikbaar) om na te praten over een geslaagde dag.

Het standaardmenu biedt vlees- en vegetarische gerechten. Heb je een voorkeur voor een andere bereidingswijze, zoals veganistisch, halal, of glutenvrij, laat het ons op tijd weten, zodat wij de kok voor je in kunnen lichten.

Hey Belgian Drupal people!

This isn't really a Drupal specific post, other than Drupal people love beer, some of you are coming to the drupalcon, and the Belgians have some of the best beer :)

If you happen to be coming to DCON New Orleans, and have some extra room in your suitcase, and would like some spending money, or want to help make the after parties even more amazing, ping me quick!

Either way, I'll see you all there!
